The NFL will offer free CPR training during Super Bowl week, and it’s inspired by the life-saving medical care Damar Hamlin received on the field during a game last month.
Next week, the American Heart Association and the NFL will join forces to bring this CPR education to Arizona as part of the NFL Experience at the Phoenix Convention Center.
Hamlin has also partnered with the AHA and they are helping him with his #3forHeart CPR challenge.

“Being able to provide care in emergency situations is not only important at sporting events, but in all walks of life,” NFL Commissioner Rodger Goodell said in a statement.
Individuals who attend the mobile training unit will receive hands-on-only CPR training from experts and receive CPR information that can be shared in their communities.
“After the events of the past month with Damar Hamlin in the field and the remarkable work that was done by the first responders, we thought about the opportunities that existed for us to share some of the learning that came from that experience more broadly, what which is part of our responsibility in the whole world of football and perhaps in the world of sport”. said NFL executive Jeff Miller.
